NAME

Gentoo::MetaEbuild::Spec::Base - A Base Class for Gentoo MetaEbuild Specifications.

VERSION

version 1.000002

SYNOPSIS

    use Gentoo::MetaEbuild::Spec::Base; # or some derived class
    Gentoo::MetaEbuild::Spec::Base->check( $datastructure );

This base-class only validates the most basic of basic, that the data is a { } using Data::Rx and using the shipped File::ShareDir v1.0.0.json spec to do that.

This will be more practical in consuming classes as they'll override selected methods/ship different spec files, but maintain the same useful interface.

METHODS

check

    Packagename->check( $datastructure );

    Packagename->check( $datastructure, \%opts );

    Packagename->check( $datastructure, { version => '0.1.0' });

EXTENDING

Extending should be this simple:

    package FooBarBaz;
    use Moose;
    extends 'Gentoo::MetaEbuild::Spec::Base';

    1;

and then ship a directory of Data::Rx spec files as the Module ShareDir for that module.

TESTING

The only fun thing with testing is the File::ShareDir directory hasn't been installed yet, but its simple to get around.

    use FindBin;
    use Path::Tiny qw( path );
    use Gentoo::MetaEbuild::Spec::Base;

    Gentoo::MetaEbuild::Spec::Base->_spec_dir(
        path($FindBin::Bin)->parent->child('share')
    );

    # Code as per usual.

    my $shareroot = path($FindBin::Bin)->parent();
